“To make sure customers show up bright and early at 9 a.m. Monday — two days before the store opening — to begin queuing up in advance of the store opening, IKEA announced it is offering thousands of dollars worth of giveaways. The first 44 adults in line Monday will get a free Ektorp sofa, and the next 100 adults in line will get a free Poang armchair.” Columbus Dispatch, May, 2017
Goat's correct. Lining up two days before the opening of a store, in hopes of free upholstery... sounds like the sofa and armchair have the upper hand.
